Equipment

Ingredients

  • 12 oz pilsner or wheat beer divided (see notes)
  • 12 oz sparkling lemonade divided (see notes)
  • lemon slices for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Pour 6 oz of the beer into each of two glasses.
  • Top the beer with 6 oz of sparkling lemonade.
  • Garnish with lemon slices, if you're feeling fancy.

Notes

  • I used an American pilsner, but a German wheat beer is also excellent.
  • You can also use sparkling grapefruit juice if that's more your style. I used San Pellegrino Limonata.
  • Using regular, non-carbonated lemonade instead of the sparkling lemonade would make this a Shandy (also delicious).
